It pays to clean up one's yarn stash and projects bags from time to time. The last time I did that I found several scarves I had knitted and had forgotten about. The other day again organizing and cleaning up project bags I found these 3 knitted cotton washcloths stuffed in with left over yarn from other completed projects. If you're like me, you have items you carry around in project bags to work on in between things.........at lunch at work, in the car on a road trip etc. Unsure how long ago I finished these, but glad I found them and can add them to our donations.
The orange cloth has a paw print on it, but it doesn't show up real well, I do remember being excited when I found the pattern, and disappointed it didn't show up much. Perhaps a different color would work better?
Not only was it nice to find these items, but my office looks nicer now with things more organized. A win win for sure, lol.

Nice wash cloths Sandy. I love making the picture ones, sometimes you can see the picture real good and other times not much. I do keep a dish/wash cloth in my carry around bag, never know when I might have a minute or two to knit.
